Suppose that a Bayesian spam filter is trained on a set of 5000 spam messages and 7500 messages that are not spam. The word "achievement" appears in 1000 spam messages and 150 messages that are not spam, while the word "research" appears in 800 spam messages and 300 messages that are not spam. Estimate the probability that a received message containing both the words "achievement" and "research" is spam. Will the message be rejected as spam if the threshold for rejecting spam is 0.9?

It currently takes users a mean of 2626 minutes to install the most popular computer program made by RodeTech, a software design company. After changes have been made to the program, the company executives want to know if the new mean is now different from 2626 minutes so that they can change their advertising accordingly. A simple random sample of 5151 new customers are asked to time how long it takes for them to install the software. The sample mean is 24.924.9 minutes with a standard deviation of 2.72.7 minutes. Perform a hypothesis test at the 0.0250.025 level of significance to see if the mean installation time has changed. Step 1 of 3 : State the null and alternative hypotheses for the test.

A fitness course claims that it can improve an individual's physical ability. To test the effect of a physical fitness course on one's physical ability, the number of sit-ups that a person could do in one minute, both before and after the course, was recorded. Ten individuals are randomly selected to participate in the course. The results are displayed in the following table. Can it be concluded, from the data, that participation in the physical fitness course resulted in significant improvement? Let d=(number of sit-ups that can be done after taking the course)−(number of sit-ups that can be done prior to taking the course)d=(number of sit-ups that can be done after taking the course)−(number of sit-ups that can be done prior to taking the course). Use a significance level of α=0.05α=0.05 for the test. Assume that the numbers of sit-ups are normally distributed for the population both before and after taking the fitness course. Sit-ups before 3232 4545 2121 5050 3636 4444 2626 2020…
Are Republicans more likely than Democrats to display the American flag in front of their residence on the Fourth of July? A simple random sample of 618 Republicans were surveyed and 408 said they display the flag on the Fourth of July. Another simple random sample of 615 Democrats were surveyed and 394 said they display the flag on the Fourth of July. Let p1p1 be the proportion of all Republicans who display the American flag on July 4th and p2p2 be the proportion of all Democrats who display the American flag on July 4th.

According to the Chronicles of Contrived Statistics (March, 2016), the probability that scientists from Area 51 will begin selling pet aliens in the next month is 21%. The probability that either Elon Musk will offer you a free trip to space or that scientists will begin sales of pet aliens next month is 55%. Finally, they list that probability of both happening in the next month is 22%. What is the probability that Elon Musk will offer you a free trip into space in the next month?
Sommelier4U is a company that ships its customers bottles of different types of wine and then has them rate the wines as “Like” or “Dislike.” For each customer, Sommelier4U trains a classification tree based on the characteristics and customer ratings of wines that the customer has tasted. Then, Sommelier4U uses the classification tree to identify new wines that the customer may Like. Sommelier4U recommends the wines that have a greater than 50% probability of being liked. Neal Jones, a loyal customer, has provided feedback on hundreds of different wines that he has tasted. Based on this feedback, Sommelier4U trained and validated the following classification tree: For these 178 wines, the tree only misclassifies two wines. These wines have the following characteristics: Wine 1: Proline = 735, Ash = 2.88, Flavanoids = 2.69, Magnesium = 118 Wine 2: Proline = 680, Ash = 2.29, Flavanoids = 2.63, Magnesium = 103 Based on this information, construct the confusion matrix based on the 178…
Suppose that there is a 15% chance that a randomly selected Stat 240 student wears glasses. Out of a class with 35 students, what is the minimum number of students wearing glasses for the percent to be considered unusually high? Thanks!
Suppose we know that at a University XYZ that 30% of students receive an A in their introductory statistics class, 30% receive a B, 20% receive a C, 10% receive a D, and 10% receive an F. For comparison, a sample of 300 students at University ABC is taken and 20% received an A, 28% received a B, 26% received a C, 15% received a D, and the remaining students failed the class. When testing (at the 5% level of significance) whether the proportions between the two universities are different, what is the null and alternative hypotheses
